Boyscout blades are a dime a dozen,
but Blade Light Folder (BLT-50N) takes camping knives to a new level.
This
has six LED lights, three molded into the handle on
either side of the blade, to light up whatever it is you鈥檙e slicing shadow-free.
Fold the blade up when you鈥檙e done fileting your fish or cutting your Camembert
for the evening, and you have a 35-lumen flashlight鈥攂right enough to get you to
the outhouse and back to your tent.
The knife takes two standard AAA batteries
that power the lights for about 4.5 hours. When you don't need 'em, you can turn the lights off with a simple push button.
You鈥檒l impress your friends, and be able to prepare backcountry crudit茅 in the dark without need for your medical kit. Bonus: it's submersible. Also available in a straight blade.
